American Racer Andrew Tate Under House Arrest in Romania

Andrew Tate, an American powerboat racer, has been placed under house arrest by Romanian police following his incarceration in Romania earlier this week. Tate was apprehended by US officials on allegations of fraud and money laundering.

Tate, a two-time world champion, has denied any wrongdoing and has been assisting investigators. The judge has ordered him to remain under house arrest for thirty days while the inquiry continues.

Tate’s attorney, Alexandru Ionescu, has stated that the decision to place Tate under home arrest will be appealed. He has also raised worry with Tate’s incarceration conditions, noting that he was confined in a “small and filthy” cell for several days prior to his release on house arrest.
